Ladies, don't you just hate it whenever you talk about Prince in front of the fellas(a brotha or a boyfriend) and they'll be tripping hard over his sexuality?? They just refuse 2 listen or anderstand. I had an argument with my young brotha an hour ago about Prince and the whole gay drama and now lol I'm just upset becoz I failed to correct that idea from his head.

I can't stand it when he(my young bruh) say "Why do you love queer niggas anyway??" A queer nigga?? UGH

watch this..here it comes...Besides a lot of women in general and probably a lot of women here on the org etc sticking up for Prince as being able to be a man and still be feminine etc are FULL OF SHIT..you know goddamn well that you wouldn't be havin no prissy ased man etc..just because Prince is a star he gets a way with it...dont be hypocritical!! You feel that Prince is above all that stereotype and should be allowed to have image etc and still be a man..make sure you take that ideology with ya out in the real world ..lets see ya. As if Yall ( some women in general) would go for that feminine mystique in a man in the real world..you know damn well you'd rather get ram rodded , fucked, packed, made love to, swept off ya feet, loved tenderly, loved, suck the dick by-of a man whos a construction worker etc rather than someone who wears lace and eye liner and posing in a Red Versace suit like Prince did. If you gonna have this "prince is a man even though his image he puts forth is feminine yet I will dog men who immediately dog him out even though it should be expected what weith P giving HEAD to a geetar etc" then use that ideolog in the real world..lemme see it!

I haven't seen a lot of JB's live performances, I'm real fuzzy on a lot of these cats but I recently bought a greatest hits comp of JB. In one of the pictures on the inside he's wearing a black jumpsuit w/ part of the chest/stomach cut out & some kinda sache around his neck... I was like, "Damn, this is straight Lovesexy!" I didn't even know JB used to get down like that w/ the dick huggin' jumpsuits & whatnot...

well, that all depends on who u talk to...the younger generation, todays teens, yea, most of them think this...but u get with the older generation, the ones who KNOW musical talent...they have mad respect for Prince...so i do not associate this with any type of knowledge whatsoever...it is associated with ignorance and todays society of what they THINK musical talent is... thanks to the media, both television and radio stations.

tell yo brotha to go and screw himself

I hear you tho, imagine being a brotha who dig Prince's music? Whew! I remember having to get my sister to buy "Lovesexy" for me cuz I was not about to be walkin round the store/mall with picture of some naked man's ass sprawled out all over a flower!

rdhull said:

Yeah easy 4 ya'll to say thats my young baby brotha,,I can't hit him. He's my sweatheart but sometimes I wanna STRNAGLE this nigga's ass,,ya know what I mean?? Sho you do

My problem is I'm a lil' bit too sweet 2ward everybody(esp youngsters who have no luck of listening to REAL music).

NuPowerSoul-My big brotha is a decent fan of Prince and yes str8 and happy. But he ain't hardcore as his young shortie sistah(me ) there,,I'm kinda lucky to have "Mustafa".

The thing that I admired about Prince when I was a teenager was the fact that he was brave and rebellious. He didnt care who thought he was gay. I wanted to have that kind of courage.

I was straight and the girls liked me enough to never question my sexual orientation just because I loved Prince. As kids will do, my friends and I had the whole Prince new wave look with the long hair and boots. Jocks would call us fags but that only intrigued the chicks. We got plenty!

I cant tell you how many chicks a nailed on my bed under the poster from the Controversy album. Let losers worry about sexial orientation regarding Prnice and his straight male fans...
